Informational Note:

The phrase "authority having jurisdiction," or its acronym AHJ,

|
||||
the authority having jurisdiction may be a federal, state, local,

||||
or other regional department or individual

||||
such as a fire chief; fire marshal; chief of a fire prevention bureau,
|
||||
labor department, or health department; building official; electrical inspector;
|
||||
or others having statutory authority.

||||
For insurance purposes, an insurance inspection department,
|
||||

|
||||
may be the authority having jurisdiction.
|
||||
In many circumstances, the property owner or his or her designated agent assumes the role of the authority having jurisdiction;
|
||||
at government installations, the commanding officer or departmental official may be the authority having jurisdiction.
